So, I wonder if this big outlaw release shook things up at Nokia at all? Did someone really get fired? Is Nokia going to respond in any way we can detect? When will PR1.2 actually get released?

Don't they realize that what happened was more or less inevitable? The term is "pent-up demand," in economics. When pent-up demand gets high enough, alternative products become more attractive. Even risky, pirated products.

Ha you might like to know that the latest NSU is reporting the leaked FW as this....

Your device already has the latest SUPPORTED software NO update is needed.

and the FW version being reported on the NSU is 10.2010.12-9

HA HA HA.

Ironicaly, I wonder if they have to delay it EVEN further, because of all the people installing the leaked firmware, now they need to check that all these people are going to be able to update to the real deal??

As far as I'm concerned the stance Nokia should take with that is:

it's your own damn fault; upgrading from PR1.1.1 works fine.

I think that the defects reported in the outlaw software could have happened in the real release. How many times have I seen the topic, "since I installed the new firmware release, I am in a reboot loop!" Oh, dozens.

Yet most people didn't jump in and say "ha ha, you deserved it, you never should have installed the official release!" But with the outlaw release they did.

I have installed so many beta copies of stuff over the years that I don't pay much attention to warnings. I think probably thousands. I have wrecked my setup a few times, had to start over from scratch, but big deal! This particular outlaw update I've avoided so far, mainly because I'm expecting the real version to arrive soon.

Well, if their QA people aren't looking at the problem reports from the outlaw version, they are idiots. I mean, free beta testing and all that. So it could cause a delay, because things that should be fixed are being fixed now, but if the outlaw version hadn't been released, they would not have realized how serious some problems could be.

The main problem with beta testing is that most beta testers are well versed in computers and testing, but when a software version hits real users, an entirely different dynamic takes over -- then you find out what happens when naive users try to do what you thought was easy and foolproof. As the funny cliche goes, anyone who thinks something is foolproof just doesn't have enough respect for the ingenuity of fools.
